Spiritual Well-Being Through Life Histories

Abstract

An adult education program designed specifically for use in churches is described in detail. Entitled "Telling Your Story, Exploring Your Faith: Autobiography for personar Insight and Spiritual Growth," the course utilizes lectures, writing assignments, and group discussions. It has been taught many times to a mixed age range but is especially effective for persons in transition periods such as retirement. Participants' comments indicate a significant degree of success in achieving the goal of enhanced personal insight and spiritual well-being. Suggestions are made for adapting the course to settings other than Protestant Christian groups.
